Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of J.K. Adams CSL-48-SM 48-Jar Maple-Wood Spice Carousel

Customer Review: almost perfect
Summary: 3 Stars

This rack holds a lot of spices in 1/3 the space of every multi-rack idea I could come up with. It takes up a fair chunk of the counter, and rises up to just 1/2 an inch below the cabinets, but it's so much better than having my spices exposed to light in a wall rack, digging through a cabinet where you can only see the 5 bottles in the front, or losing 3 square feet of counterspace to multiple smaller racks. The price tag was STEEP though, and it really held me off buying it for a long time.

I'd give it 5 stars, but that's reserved for products that go above and beyond to delight the customer. The makers of this rack short change us and the insensitivity to detail made them lose big on this item. It may seem petty, but for $170 I was super peeved that I would have had to hand-write so many labels. When you get to the point where you need to spend that much money to hold that many spices, it's a fair bet it's because you cook with more than parsley and garlic salt. They could have easily and very inexpensively included just one more sheet of labels to cover the major spices used by over 2/3 of the planet's population. Plus, many spices are used ground, whole, or in flakes, but there's only one label for each name. So what if someone ends up with a label for fenugreek powder and doesn't need it because they only use leaves? It's better than no label at all. The rack ended up costing an extra $25 for label stock and an afternoon making my own full set so the font would match. It lost a full star for the steep price tag and another for the short sheeting on labels with such a steep price tag.

That being said, the construction is indeed excellent and it looks like it will last a very long time.
